Re: [Logic_Cafe] sheet music

- Oh yeah. I expected to be able to grab a note or group of notes and move 
them in Finale - but there turns out to be a right click function then you have 
to transpose. 
- I found you could not import a midi file, then add a key signature, because 
it would transpose everything
- couldn't copy and paste notes (e.g. "chorus") or chord symbols
- seemed like I had to enter the tempo three times
- it was nice to be able to have it analyze chords automatically but about 
50% of the time they were totally wrong
- chord symbols would not let me enter certain things
- couldn't see a way to force a page break or measure break
- etc.

I think I will try Sibelius too. I know they have a demo. There is another 
one called Notion I think too.
